Birthday Party Invitation Ideas
Make invitations out of blue note cards by cutting out either a
tie or bowtie from scrapbook paper and gluing to the front of
the note card. If you use a bow tie you can also glue 3 or
4 white buttons underneath the bowtie in a vertical line.
Cut out shapes of mustaches, bowties, long ties or dress shirts
and paste to the front of note cards.
Make or buy note cards that have a tuxedo pattern on the front.
Little Man Party Decorations
Decorate with long ties and bowties. Start outside and
tie ties and bow ties around the mailbox and hang them from trees
outside. (Thrift shops and garage sales are great places to find
cheap ties in large quantities.)
Hang ties and/or bowties from chandeliers, the mantle, staircases and entryways.
Make a banner using long ties draped over a cord and gluing the letters of your little man's name to each tie. Or make a paper banner using scrapbook paper in tie patterns. Or make a cute banner using triangles and paper mustaches glued to the center of each triangle.
Set out a table full of bowties and regular ties and ask guests to wear them during the party. A piece of string attached to each side of a bowtie will make it easy to wear as a necklace.
For the birthday boy and his guests make an easy tie appliqué t-shirt for them to wear. You will need Heat and Bond, a t-shirt and some fabric. Following the directions on the Heat and Bond iron the fabric and the Heat and Bond together. On the Heat and Bond side trace a bowtie or regular tie pattern and cut out. Peel off the back of the Heat and Bond paper, place the tie on the t-shirt and iron. Very easy and fun to give as a party favor!
